    Vanity plates.

    Finally gave up my "AVATR" license plate today. Had it for soooo many years. 60$ was a tad too much compare to regular 24$.
    Went with a combat vet plate like all my vehicles that I drive.

    I've never had one, too easy for someone to remember. Last I checked
    they were an extra $50 here in VT, per year !

      Yeah Mike, that was the only special plate I had in my life so far. Some how did not care for it anymore.

          I've reported that vanity name before. Probably do it again.

        I have a VET plate now though. It's free from DMV
        We can get this in Vanity also but I think it has ti start in a "V"

          Anybody can BUY a stupid vanity plate. But, to get a VET PLATE, you have to EARN it. To all you guys who have earned one, Thank You!

            ^^^ this. It finally dawned on me.
            Have been eligible for it since 2004 and over and over again since.

          I've never really understood the paranoia regarding personalized plates or even showing a plate in photos... its's not like a license plate isn't seen by thousands of people while we ride. So anyway, I finally decided to go for it with both bikes.

            I dont think in TN you can get a vanity'd veteran plate. They are serial numbered.
            Got em for my 3 bikes, and car. The sprinter is commercial and belongs to my practice.

              In Iowa we pay $5 extra each year on our bike vanity plates.
              Total cost each year is $25 and that drops to $15 next year.

                I know a guy that had several through the years, but one seemed to garner more comments than the others...

                If loud pipes save lives, imagine what learning to ride that thing could do.

                  I have had ME262 since 1998 for my K bikes, but this past plate renewal cycle I noticed the state wants 45$ for nothing. I guess it is done next time. Though I wanted to put ME163 on my S bike. Christ I've spend 45$ for a dinner I did not like way more than once, what the hell.

                    I have heard of it Joe but it wouldn't come to mind looking at a motorcycle plate.

                    Had a guy here with a LT. The plate read BIGFE..... I'd rather not have to think
                    about it or Google.

                    The ME262 would not be BMJ's choice. That's for sure! A hopped up ME163 is way more his style. Swoosh!!!!!!!
